99% Of Woodworkers Do Not Know This About A Table Saw

Hey there it's Wes...If you have any projects or specific questions you might need help with go to www.woodworkingwithwes.com/

Wes, forgot to mention that I also extended the miter slots by routing those in the outfeed, once I got the width and depth correct I went back and did a very slight chamfer on the slots to keep them from chipping. those extended miter slots really come in handy when using a miter gauge or a cross cut sled...

I am a 72 year old former Carpenter. 30 years ago or so, I copied bees Myers system. I made the fence and front rail just as you did. That was the best thing I have ever done to that old Craftsman table saw. thank you for your video.

Hi Wes, I’m a 78 year old retired graphic designer turned woodworker working on the second floor of a three car garage. You have some great tips.

Awesome job. I learned something new. Thanks. I’m a young 71 year’s residential builder that’s always wanted a nice work shop. I have the tools but I lack the time to get everything set up like I want it. You’ve given me some good ideas 😊

Hey Wes! Happy to see a new vid! That is the best outfeed table for a table saw I’ve ever seen. I’m excited to watch more of your copycat furniture builds; it’s fun to watch you reverse, engineer tables and cabinets etc.——they’re some of the best furniture vids on YouTube. Thanks and glad you’re back!

To put it short and simple, you did a fantastic job with an outstanding tutorial explaining it. Thanks and may all your projects turn out as well made as this.

Hey Wes, Great video! I have something very similar on my Delta Unisaw and it's awesome to have all that space especially when sawing full sheets. The one thing I did was attach the Melamine with screws from underneath so there would be no screws showing on top. I also edge banded the entire raw table edges with 3/4" Maple, I think it looks much better but also because Melamine has a tendency to chip especially when you screw or nail it through the top. Another reason is when I clean and wax my cast iron saw top I also do all the Melamine out feed table. It makes the wood glide like it's on a cushion of Air and it extends the life of the table. I've had my current table on the saw for seven years now with lots of use and it still looks really good.

Good tutorial! Thank you, Wes. I always look forward to watching your new videos.

Your generosity in taking all the time to share your obvious expertise was so kind as well as brilliant. Thank you

Glad you are back Wes!

Well done Wes. I do all my work in a double garage, so the cabinet saw is on wheels.. What you have there is great. Lots of room and an outfeed table and saw fence can never be to big.. Thats for sure.

What a great table. I've never seen the large legs on an outfeed bench like that; it looks robust! And the melamine top is so great for sliding work across! Well done. Always feels like I'm with my dad in the woodshop when I watch your videos, Wes. Thanks.

Wes, great job and thanks for sharing. This coming summer I am adding into my house that will give me about a 24’ x 30’ space basement space for a woodworking shop. I may copy some of your ideas. You are the best. Thanks again.

I did the same thing on my table saw. It is so easy to do and so much cheaper! Good video as usual!

Outstanding....!! I especially like the support you have that still allows you to open the dust clean out...! Also the extra long fence...very nice!

Awesome video, probably the best idea/project I've seen on YouTube all year. Fantastic, can't thank you enough for the videos you produce, great quality and craftsmanship as well as you hit a good price point vs so many out there who use all the expensive Baltic birch and it's just overkill on quality and price. Thanks! Love your videos ❤

Boy I wish I had that amount of space. Great table & good advice! Nothing fancy, just straight forward and easy to understand. I'll take a few of your tips and apply them to my 'mini' table saw. As I only have a small 15 X10 foot shop, so I need to have my out feed area foldable. But I can keep it level with the saw bed. So when the winter is over I will get cracking at it. I have some built in wardrobes to build and your tip with the cleats is a gem.

Thanks Wes, this is an excellent out feed table, with sooo much room.👍

I wish I had the space for an outfeed table that large in my shop. Looks like a great design with a huge capacity. I re-mounted my saw fence rails so that I can cut up to 36" (it is meant for 30" normally) and made a movable 4x4' outfeed table that can be swung around or moved to either side depending on my needs. I have large locking/leveling wheels on it to make moving and aligning it easy. I doubles as an assembly table with dog holes and MatchFit channels and have a full shelf under for storage.
